over material wealth .Knowledge can be used
to make money, but it cannot really be purchased with money. It is acquired by individual efforts, Worldly
wealth is limited, knowledge is unlimited, Knowledge cannot be taken away or stolen. It is not burdensom
to carry and it causes no anxiety. Safeguarding one's costly wordly possessions could be a source if

4. The Mundaka Upanishad speaks of two kinds of knowledge; 'apara vidya' or lower knowledge acquired
by study of the Vedas, rituals and astrology for one's well being in the material world, and 'Para vidya
' or
higher knowledge, knowledge of the imperishable Being or God. One of the three main paths to be
followed to attain liberation is jnana yoga, or union with God through knowledge. Krishna says in the
Bhagvad Gita: "Realisation and competence gained through spiritual practices are never lost" Material
wealth is an impediment for a seeker of 'Para vidya', because it is a source of obstruction. As Krishna
says: "He on whom I want to bestow My grace, I slowly deprive him of all his wealth."

Articles also modify the nouns. So, articles are also adjectives. Articles determine the specification of nouns. ‘A’ and ‘an’ are used to refer to an unspecific noun, and ‘the’ is used to refer to a specific noun.
Examples:
A cat is always afraid of water. (Here, the noun ‘cat’ refers to any cat, not specific.)
The cat is afraid of me. (This cat is a specific cat.)
